Upcycling of industrial pea starch by rapid spray nanoprecipitation to develop plant-derived oil encapsulated starch nanoparticles for potential agricultural applications. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 346:122618. [PMID: 39245527 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2024.122618] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/05/2024] [Revised: 08/01/2024] [Accepted: 08/14/2024] [Indexed: 09/10/2024]
Abstract
Starch is one of the natural encapsulant materials widely used in food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. Starch with high amylose content (above 40 %, w/w) is prone to form single helices V-type allomorph with a hydrophilic outer surface and a hydrophobic inner cavity making them suitable for encapsulation of hydrophobic compounds such as essential oils, fatty acids, and vitamins. Pea starch obtained from pea protein processing industries have a high amylose content (40 %, w/w) rendering them unsuitable for direct food applications as ingredients. Therefore, in this study, an in-house spraying procedure was used to synthesize nanoparticles using pea starch, to encapsulate neem oil, a natural antimicrobial compound obtained from neem plant (Azadirachta indica) seed. The synthesis of the oil-encapsulated starch nanoparticles (OESNP) was optimized using a Box-Behnken experimental design to study the influence of the processing parameters such as the initial starch concentration, homogenization speed, duration of homogenization, sample injection rate, and quantity of antisolvent (ethanol). The optimized sample showed an 80-90 % encapsulation efficiency and particle size of <500 nm. The spherical OESNPs also demonstrated sustained release of the oil compared to free oil when dispersed in water. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed the coexistence of C-type and V-type polymorphs in the loaded and unloaded nanoparticles. It is concluded that the synthesized OESNPs with controlled release hold the potential to utilize industrial pea starch waste for the delivery of natural pesticides in agriculture.

Sun D, Jia Y, He X, Qin Y, Li M, Liu X, Xu T, Xiong L, Guo M, Ji N, Sun Q. Effects of debranched starch on physicochemical properties and in vitro digestibility of flat rice noodles. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 276:133913. [PMID: 39025192 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133913] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2024] [Revised: 07/03/2024] [Accepted: 07/14/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024]
Abstract
Aiming to develop flat rice noodles with both desirable textural quality and lower starch digestibility, we investigated the effect of adding indica rice debranched starch (RDBS) on the quality of flat rice noodles. In this study, adding RDBS to flat rice noodles enhanced their mechanical properties. Cooking characteristic analysis showed that incorporating RDBS into dried flat rice noodles increased the rehydration ratio by 16.1 % and reduced rehydration time by 26.5 %. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed the presence of microparticles formed through the self-assembly of RDBS within the network of flat rice noodles. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis demonstrated that the addition of RDBS elevated the crystallinity of the flat rice noodles, rising from 9.59 % to 22.57 %. In addition, the in vitro simulated digestion test suggested the addition of RDBS led to a threefold increase in the content of slowly digestible starch (SDS) and a ninefold increase in resistant starch (RS) content in flat rice noodles. This study found that adding RDBS into flat rice noodles can effectively reduce their digestion rate and improve their eating quality. It could be a promising approach for creating functional rice noodles aimed at alleviating public health concerns such as diabetes and obesity.

Abstract
Chrysin and rutin are natural polyphenols with multifaceted biological activities but their applications face challenges in bioavailability. Encapsulation using starch nanoparticles (SNPs) presents a promising approach to overcome the limitations. In this study, chrysin and rutin were encapsulated into self-assembled SNPs derived from quinoa (Q), maize (M), and waxy maize (WM) starches using enzyme-hydrolysis. Encapsulation efficiencies ranged from 74.3 % to 79.1 %, with QSNPs showing superior performance. Simulated in vitro digestion revealed sustained release and higher antioxidant activity in QSNPs compared to MSNPs and WMSNPs. Variations in encapsulation properties among SNPs from different sources were attributed to the differences in the structural properties of the starches. The encapsulated SNPs exhibited excellent stability, retaining over 90 % of chrysin and 85 % of rutin after 15 days of storage. These findings underscore the potential of SNP encapsulation to enhance the functionalities of chrysin and rutin, facilitating the development of fortified functional foods with enhanced bioavailability and health benefits.

Abstract
Recently, pre-formed V-type starch has become popular as a versatile carrier in encapsulation systems of containing starch-guest inclusion complexes (ICs). However, the differences in stabilizing and dissociating guests between ICs prepared by either the traditional method or the pre-formed "empty" helix method have not yet been elucidated. Here, starch-thymol ICs were prepared using the traditional high temperature-water method and the pre-formed method, covering different complexation temperatures and solvents, to compare the loading capacity, crystalline structure, thermal stability, and release properties. The highest content of thymol in ICs prepared by the pre-formed and the traditional method was 74.2 and 65.3 mg/g, respectively. Different from ICs prepared by the traditional method (V7-type crystal), ICs prepared by the pre-formed method mostly exhibited a V6a structure with larger crystallinities and a better short-range ordered structure. ICs prepared at 90 °C were type II complexes and efficiently protected thymol from rapid heat loss. A slow release was observed in both cases: about 45 % and 75 % of thymol were released from ICs prepared by the pre-formed and traditional methods, respectively, after two weeks of storage at 25 °C.

Abstract
To prepare fine and stable nanocarriers for curcumin using a highly efficient and convenient method, nanoprecipitation combined with ultrasonication and a high-speed dispersion (US+HSS) method were used to prepare short amylose nanoparticles with pre-formed helical structures. Their morphology, structural characteristics, and embedding effects for curcumin were investigated. The results showed that the optimal ratio of ethanol to short amylose solution and ultrasonic time was 4:1 and 4 min, respectively. The nanoparticles showed a small size (82.43 nm), relatively high loading capacity (11.57 %), and a peak gelatinization temperature of 97.74 °C. Compared to the nanoprecipitation method, the short amylose nanoparticles prepared using the US+HSS method possessed a higher V-type crystalline structure ratio. In addition, the US+HSS method was easier to use to prepare nanoparticles with high stability against NaCl, and the stable nanoparticles showed the best in vitro sustained release effect for curcumin. The Peppas-Sahlin model was the optimal model that matched curcumin release from nanoparticles during digestion.

Abstract
Bacterial infections can lead to the formation of chronic wounds and delay the wound-healing process. Therefore, it is important to explore safe and efficient antimicrobial agents that have wound-healing and biocompatible properties. In this study, novel starch-fabricated silver nitroprusside nanoparticles (S-AgNP NPs) were prepared for biocompatible wound-healing applications. The study showed that S-AgNP NPs are spherical, with an average size of 356 ± 22.28 d. nm and zeta potential of -27.8 ± 2.80 mV, respectively. Furthermore, the FTIR and XRD results showed that S-AgNP NPs have functional groups and crystal structures from the silver nitroprusside nanoparticles (AgNP NPs) and starch. Additionally, S-AgNP NPs showed excellent bacterial and biofilm inhibition on B. cereus (15.6 μg/mL), L. monocytogenes (15.6 μg/mL), S. aureus (31.3 μg/mL), E. coli (31.3 μg/mL) and S. enterica (62.5 μg/mL). Moreover, S-AgNP NPs promoted cell migration and proliferation at a concentration of 62.5 μg/mL compared to AgNP NPs. Meanwhile, S-AgNP NPs had good biocompatibility and low cytotoxicity compared to AgNP NPs. Therefore, this study provided new ideas for the development of wound-healing agents with bacteriostatic properties in chronic wounds.

Abstract
Starch nanoparticles (SNPs) are generally defined as starch grains smaller than 600-1000 nm produced from a series of physical, chemical, or biologically modified starches. Many studies have reported the preparation and modification of SNPs, which are mostly based on the traditional "top-down" strategy. The preparation process generally has problems with process complexity, long reaction periods, low yield, high energy consumption, poor repeatability, etc. A "bottom-up" strategy, such as an anti-solvent method, is proven to be suitable for the preparation of SNPs, and they are synthesized with small particle size, good repeatability, a low requirement on equipment, simple operation, and great development potential. The surface of raw starch contains a large amount of hydroxyl and has a high degree of hydrophilicity, while SNP is a potential emulsifier for food and non-food applications.

Abstract
Probiotics provide several benefits for humans, including restoring the balance of gut bacteria, boosting the immune system, and aiding in the management of certain conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome and lactose intolerance. However, the viability of probiotics may undergo a significant reduction during food storage and gastrointestinal transit, potentially hindering the realization of their health benefits. Microencapsulation techniques have been recognized as an effective way to improve the stability of probiotics during processing and storage and allow for their localization and slow release in intestine. Although, numerous techniques have been employed for the encapsulation of probiotics, the encapsulation techniques itself and carrier types are the main factors affecting the encapsulate effect. This work summarizes the applications of commonly used polysaccharides (alginate, starch, and chitosan), proteins (whey protein isolate, soy protein isolate, and zein) and its complex as the probiotics encapsulation materials; evaluates the evolutions in microencapsulation technologies and coating materials for probiotics, discusses their benefits and limitations, and provides directions for future research to improve targeted release of beneficial additives as well as microencapsulation techniques. This study provides a comprehensive reference for current knowledge pertaining to microencapsulation in probiotics processing and suggestions for best practices gleaned from the literature.

Green preparation of 3D micronetwork eugenol-encapsuled porous starch for improving the performance of starch-based antibacterial film. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 241:124593.

Abstract
In order to find a non-enzymatically treated alternative wall material with effective encapsulation properties, and to reduce the use of conventional non-biodegradable plastics, a novel 3D-micronetwork porous starch (3D-MPS) was created via a modified sacrificial template method to encapsulate eugenol (3D-EMPS) and used to incorporate with TiO2-starch film, for significantly improving the performance of starch-based antibacterial film. At the template SiO2 nanoparticles concentration of 0.1 %, the 3D-MPS exhibited anticipated alveolate structure with internal aperture of approximately 10 μm confirmed by SEM. With addition of 3D-EMPS, higher tensile strength (29.70 Mpa) and water barrier property (924 g/cm2·24 h) of the composite film was obtained. Moreover, molecular docking technique was used to model the intermolecular forces, which showed that the major forces maintaining the internal bonding of the composite film were hydrogen bonding and the interaction between eugenol and 3D-MPS skeleton in 3D-EMPS. Meanwhile, the composite film demonstrated the expected eugenol retardation and antimicrobial capacity against S. aureus, E. coli, and B. subtilis. Finally, the composite films were used for evaluating the feasibility in the actual food, which largely extended its shelf life compared to the negative control. This high-performance film revealed their potential for packaging materials application.

Abstract
Pickering emulsions are increasingly preferred over typical surfactant-based emulsions due to several advantages, such as lower emulsifier usage, simplicity, biocompatibility, and safety. These types of emulsions are stabilized using solid particles, which produce a thick layer at the oil-water interface preventing droplets from aggregating. Starch nano-particles (SNPs) have received considerable attention as natural alternatives to synthetic stabilizers due to their unique properties. Physical formulation processes are currently preferred for SNP production since they are environmentally friendly procedures that do not require the use of chemical reagents. This review provides a thorough overview in a critical perspective of the physical processes to produce starch nano-particles used as Pickering emulsion stabilizers, fabricated by a 2-step process. Specifically, the reviewed physical approaches for nano-starch preparation include high hydrostatic pressure, high pressure homogenization, ultrasonication, milling and antisolvent precipitation. All the essential parameters used to evaluate the effectiveness of particles in stabilizing these systems are also presented in detail, including the hydrophobicity, size, and content of starch particles. Finally, this review provides the basis for future research focusing on physical nano-starch production, to ensure the widespread use of these natural stabilizers in the ever-evolving field of food technology.

Abstract
Various potential sources of bioactive components exist in nature which are fairly underutilized due to the lack of a scientific approach that can be sustainable as well as practically feasible. The recovery of bioactive compounds is a big challenge and its use in food industry to develop functional foods is a promising area of research. Various techniques are available for the extraction of these bioactives but due to their thermolabile nature, there is demand for nonthermal or green technologies which can lower the cost of operation and decrease operational time and energy consumption as compared to conventional methods. Ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) is gaining popularity due to its relative advantages over solvent extraction. Thereafter, ultrasonication as an encapsulating tool helps in protecting the core components against adverse food environmental conditions during processing and storage. The review mainly aims to discuss ultrasound technology, its applications, the fundamental principles of ultrasonic-assisted extraction and encapsulation, the parameters affecting them, and applications of ultrasound-assisted extraction and encapsulation in food systems. Additionally, future research areas are highlighted with an emphasis on the energy sustainability of the whole process.

Abstract
Starch is affected by several limitations, e.g., retro-gradation, high viscosity even at low concentrations, handling issues, poor freeze-thaw stability, low process tolerance, and gel opacity. In this context, physical, chemical, and enzymatic methods have been investigated for addressing such limitations or adding new attributes. Thus, the creation of biomaterial-based nanoparticles has sparked curiosity. Because of that, single nucleotide polymorphisms are gaining a lot of interest in food packaging technology. This is due to their ability to increase the mechanical and water vapor resistance of the matrix, as well as hide its re-crystallization during storage in high-humidity atmospheres and enhance the mechanical properties of films when binding in paper machines and paper coating. In medicine, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are suitable as carriers in the field of drug delivery for immobilized bioactive or therapeutic agents, as well as wastewater treatments as an alternative to expensive activated carbons. Starch nanoparticle preparations can be performed by hydrolysis via acid hydrolysis of the amorphous part of a starch molecule, the use of enzymes such as pullulanase or isoamylase, or a combination of two regeneration and mechanical treatments with the employment of extrusion, irradiation, ultrasound, or precipitation. The possibility of obtaining cheap and easy-to-use methods for starch and starch derivative nanoparticles is of fundamental importance. Nano-precipitation and ultra-sonication are rather simple and reliable methods for nanoparticle production. The process involves the addition of a diluted starch solution into a non-solvent, and ultra-sonication aims to reduce the size by breaking the covalent bonds in polymeric material due to intense shear forces or mechanical effects associated with the collapsing of micro-bubbles by sound waves. The current study focuses on starch nanoparticle manufacturing, characterization, and emerging applications.

Curcumin-loaded HKUST-1@ carboxymethyl starch-based composites with moisture-responsive release properties and synergistic antibacterial effect for perishable fruits. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 214:181-191.

Abstract
The spoilage of fruit is one of the most important causes of fruit waste. High humidity by fresh fruit respiration leads to bacterial reproduction, which is the key factor of products corruption. Herein, a biological multifunctional film (Cur-HKUST-1@CMS/PVA) for fruits preservation with a high moisture environment was developed by cross-linking carboxymethyl starch (CMS)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) with MOF-199 (HKUST-1), and loaded with curcumin. The hydrophilic CMS facilitates water adsorption and moisture can stimulate curcumin release from HKUST-1. HKUST-1 not only acts as curcumin carriers but also forms synergistic antibacterial with curcumin to improve the antibacterial activity of the composites. XRD and SEM demonstrated that moisture disrupts the structure of HKUST-1 and releases curcumin and the results showed that the release of curcumin increased from 25.11 % to 58.32 % after moisture stimulation. In addition, Cur-HKUST-1@CMS/PVA had excellent antibacterial activity and antioxidant ability. As validation, the film can keep pitaya and avocado freshness at least 4 days longer than the control, confirming the effectiveness of Cur-HKUST-1@CMS/PVA in preventing fruit decay. Consequently, Cur-HKUST-1@CMS/PVA is a promising active packaging material for improve the shelf life of perishable fruits.

Abstract
This work chemically modified short linear glucan (SLG) by introducing a surface carboxymethyl group to obtain carboxymethylated SLG (CMSLG), then prepared CMSLG-based ternary nanocomplex particles based on electrostatic interactions with sodium-caseinate (NaCas) and pectin. These nanocomplex particles are homogeneous, generally exhibiting sizes of <200 nm with spherical shape and negative surface charge. In addition, the results showed the increase in both the mass ratio of CMSLG and NaCas and the synthesis temperature can improve the colloidal stability of nanocomplex particles when they are exposed to simulated gastrointestinal fluids containing digestive enzymes. Moreover, nanocomplex particles have an exceptional capability to encapsulate curcumin, and this encapsulation efficiency increased as the mass ratios of CMSLG and NaCas were increased. The study also investigated the antioxidant activity and in vitro release properties of curcumin encapsulated by nanocomplex particles and found that CMSLG/NaCas/pectin had improved higher ABTS radical scavenging capacity and allowed for the controlled, sustained release of curcumin in simulated gastrointestinal fluid within 6 hours. Thus, this study provides new insights into the design of a CMSLG-based ternary nanocomplex and its use as a potential oral delivery system for lipophilic bioactive compounds. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Curcumin, as a sort of natural polyphenolic compound, has many physiologic functions such as anti-oxidation, anticancer, and prevention of Alzheimer's disease. However, the application of the curcumin has been limited by its poor water solubility and unstable physicochemical property. To solve this problem, the nanotechnology has been used to prepare the nano-delivery carriers for curcumin. This work prepared a ternary nanoparticle based on the carboxymethyl short linear glucan, sodium-caseinate, and pectin. The ternary nanoparticle can achieve a higher encapsulation efficiency for curcumin. In addition, the ternary nanoparticle can enhance the ABTS radical scavenging capacity and provided control and sustained release of curcumin in the simulated gastrointestinal fluid.

Abstract
Recently, the development of ecofriendly and biocompatible agrochemical delivery systems has garnered widespread attention because of their great potential in sustainable agri-food applications. Atrazine (ATZ) is a globally used herbicide used to control weeds, but it suffers from poor aqueous solubility, poor efficacy, and environmental loss. Herein, we report a novel, eco-friendly and biocompatible clove oil-based nanoemulsion as a green nanocarrier to enhance the solubility, bioavailability, and control release of ATZ. Food grade surfactants, Tween 80 and Phosphatidylcholine (PC) were used to formulate clove oil nanoemulsion with size <200 nm using ultrasonic emulsification technique, without any use of organic solvent. The ATZ encapsulation efficiency in NEm was greater than 95%. DLS confirms the nanosize (106 nm) and monodispersity of NEm. HRTEM reveals the spherical morphology of the nanodroplets. FTIR and DSC confirm the successful incorporation of ATZ inside the NEm oil droplet core. ATZ loaded NEm showed excellent thermal and storage stability, low Ostwald ripening rate, slow and sustained herbicide release behavior, which is of vital importance for an herbicide formulation. The release rate was better than commercial ATZ and free ATZ formulations. Results from herbicidal activity assays demonstrate that ATZ NEm exhibited excellent herbicidal activity even at low concentrations as compared to commercial ATZ analogs. In consideration of biocompatible excipients, free of organic solvent, and a simple fabrication process, ATZ loaded clove oil NEm can hold great potential in weed control and sustainable agri-food applications.

Abstract
Pathogenic microorganisms posed perniciousness for postharvest fruits and vegetables, as well as brought potential risks for human health. In this work, pullulan/polyvinyl alcohol (PUL/PVA) nanofibers incorporated with thymol-loaded porphyrin metal-organic framework nanoparticles (THY@PCN-224 NPs) were developed for antibacterial food packaging. PCN-224 MOFs not only act as thymol loading carriers but also highly produce singlet oxygen (1O2) with bactericidal activity. PUL/PVA nanofiber was a promising sustainable substrate because of its good flexibility, biocompatibility and biodegradability. The loading capacity of PCN-224 for thymol was about 20%. The THY@PCN/PUL/PVA nanofibers exhibited synergistic antibacterial activities against E. coli (~99%) and S. aureus (~98%) under light irradiation. The cell viability assays and fruit preservation study demonstrated good biosafety of the polymeric film. The results suggested that this novel nanofiber has potential application prospects for food packaging.

Abstract
Nanostarch, as a food-grade Pickering emulsion stabilizer, has attracted wide attention owing to its biodegradability, nontoxicity, small size, and large specific surface area. In this review, the preparation, modification, and application of Pickering emulsions incorporating nanostarch are described. At present, methods for nanostarch preparation mainly include acid hydrolysis, acid hydrolysis combined with other treatments, nanoprecipitation, ultrasonication, ball milling, and cross-linking. Nanostarch is a promising Pickering emulsion stabilizer, and its emulsifying ability of nanostarch is significantly improved by hydrophobic modification. The hydrophobicity, charge, size, and content of nanostarch affect the emulsion stability. Future developments in this area of research include the efficient and environmentally friendly preparation of nanostarch as well as the control of its hydrophobicity via modification. Future studies should focus on the digestibility and storage stability of Pickering emulsions stabilized by nanostarch under different conditions.

Abstract
The article reviews the possibilities of encapsulating essential oils EOs, due to their multiple benefits, controlled release, and in order to protect them from environmental conditions. Thus, we present the natural polymers and the synthetic macromolecular chains that are commonly used as networks for embedding EOs, owing to their biodegradability and biocompatibility, interdependent encapsulation methods, and potential applicability of bioactive blend structures. The possibilities of using artificial intelligence to evaluate the bioactivity of EOs—in direct correlation with their chemical constitutions and structures, in order to avoid complex laboratory analyses, to save money and time, and to enhance the final consistency of the products—are also presented.

Abstract
The very recent Covid-19 pandemic has made the need to understand biocompatible polymers as support material in drug delivery systems and controlled release clearer, especially for organo-hydrogels. This study aims to synthesize various new polymeric materials called gels, hydrogels, and organo-hydrogels according to the monomer used and to investigate their use as drug release systems. The agar-glycerol (AG) pair was used to synthesize the polymers, N, N, methylene bisacrylamide (MBA, m) and glutaraldehyde (GA, g) were used as cross-linkers and peppermint oil (PmO) was included to obtain the organo-hydrogels. Therefore, one AG gel and two p (AG-m) and p (GA-g) hydrogels were synthesized within the scope of the study. Six different organo-hydrogels based on p(AG-m-PmO) or p (AG-g-PmO) were also synthesized by varying the amount of peppermint oil. Paracetamol and carboplatin were selected as the sample drugs. Synthesized gels, hydrogels and organo-hydrogels were characterized by FTIR and SEM analysis. Additionally, swelling behaviors of the synthesized gels were investigated in different media (ID water, tap water, ethanol, acetone, ethanol/ID water (1:1), acetone/ID water (1:1) and gasoline) and at different pHs. Moreover, it was determined that organo-hydrogels were blood compatible and had antioxidant properties based on hemolysis, blood clotting and antioxidant analysis. Therefore, the release of paracetamol (a known antipyretic-painkiller, recommended and used in the treatment of Covid-19) and carboplatin (widely used in cancer treatment) were studied. Evidently, as the amount of PMO oil increases, the -OH groups in organo-hydrogels will increase and the chemical and physical bonding rates will increase; therefore it was observed that increasing peppermint oil in the organo-hydrogels structure to 0.3 mL stimulated the release of the drugs. For instance, maximum paracetamol release amount from p(AG-g-PmO) and p(AG-m-PmO) organo-hydrogels was calculated to be 72.3% at pH 7.4 and 69.8% at pH 2.0, respectively. The maximum carboplatin release amount from p(AG-g-PmO) and p(AG-m-PmO) organo-hydrogels was calculated to be 99.7% at pH 7.4 and 100% at pH 7.4, respectively. It was concluded that the synthesized organo-hydrogels might easily be used as drug carrier and controlled drug release materials.

Abstract
Emerging antibiotic resistance in pathogens has posed considerable challenges to explore and examine the natural antimicrobials (NAMs). Due to the labile nature of NAMs, nano-delivery systems (NDS) are required to protect them from physiological degradation and allow controlled delivery to the targeted site of infection. In this study, corona modified NDS were developed using bovine serum albumin (BSA) on a chitosan core (CS) for sustained delivery of carvacrol (CAR), a natural antimicrobial agent, in the intestine. The optimal nano-formulations of the core (CS-NDS) and corona modified (BSA-CS-NDS) systems were fabricated with an average diameter of 52.4 ± 10.4 nm and 202.6 ± 6 nm, respectively. A shift in zeta-potential (ZP) from positive (+21 ± 3.6 mV) to negative values (-18 ± 2.6 mV) confirmed the electrostatic deposition of BSA corona on CS core. Under the influence of various simulated gastrointestinal conditions, BSA corona provided extra stability to NDS (ZP -38.5 mV), by ensuring delayed release and limited degradation in the gastric conditions. Mucoadhesive studies with quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) revealed that BSA corona reduced the mucoadhesion of NDS at gastric pH, which enabled the effective delivery of CAR to the intestinal phase for successful eradication of Salmonella enterica.

Abstract
Recently, amylose-lipid complexes have attracted widespread attention because of their various applications. However, DBS complexed with fatty acids of different carbon chain length are rarely studied. This study aimed to probe the complexation of DBS with saturated fatty acids having different carbon chain lengths (C6-C18). The results revealed that DBS was able to form V-type complexes with all the fatty acids considered. Compared to DBS, the relative crystallinity of the complexes increased 2-3 times. DBS with lauric acid and myristic acid formed three types V-type complexes (type I, type IIa, and type IIb). The complexing index followed the order of hexanoic acid > octanoic acid > capric acid > lauric acid > myristic acid > palmitic acid > stearic acid. Furthermore, lauric acid and myristic acid formed complexes with DBS more easily compared with other fatty acids.

Abstract
Nanoparticles (NPs) can form a protein corona (PC) with proteins in biological fluids. We examined whether starch nanoparticles (SNPs) form a PC and interact with digestive enzymes in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids. We investigated the adsorption of pepsin and trypsin on unmodified, carboxyl-, and amino-modified SNPs (SNPs, COOH-SNPs, and NH2-SNPs, respectively). Quartz crystal microbalance data showed that a tight and irreversible pepsin corona formed on the NH2-SNPs, pepsin had little or no binding to the SNPs and COOH-SNPs, and trypsin had weak binding to all three kinds of NPs. Dynamic light scattering data showed that pepsin significantly increased the size of the NH2-SNPs from 120 ± 2.6 to 203 ± 12.2 nm and decreased their surface potential from 23.2 ± 1.0 to 12.7 ± 0.2 mV. NH2-SNPs could induce the fluorescence quenching of pepsin and change its secondary structures without affecting its activity.

Abstract
With recent advances in nanotechnology, debranched starch nanoparticle (DBS-NP) materials have attracted considerable interest from the fields of functional food, biomedicine, and material science, thanks to their small size, biodegradability, biocompatibility, sustainability, and non-hazardous effects on health and the environment. In this study, DBS-NP was fabricated using an eco-friendly method involving ultrasonication combined with recrystallization. The effects of ultrasonication and recrystallization times on the morphology, particle size, and crystal structure of the DBS-NPs were systematically investigated. Compared with the DBS-NPs prepared using ultrasonication treatment only, the DBS-NPs formed using ultrasonication combined with recrystallization were uniform in size and well distributed in aqueous solution. Moreover, the maximum encapsulation efficiency and loading capacity of the epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) in the DBS-NPs with ultrasonication treatment reached 88.35% and 22.75%, respectively. The particle sizes of the EGCG@DBS-NP were more stable at a neutral pH (7.4) than at an acidic pH (2.1). The EGCG in the EGCG@DBS-NP displayed excellent radical scavenging activity and antibacterial effects, and cell assays demonstrated that the EGCG@DBS-NP was non-toxic and highly biocompatible.

Abstract
This review article discusses the active constituents and potential of two menthol mint oils, Mentha piperita (MPEO) and Mentha arvensis (MAEO), as natural sources for botanical pesticides. The biological activities of these menthol mint oils, which can be useful in agriculture, have been broadly researched, especially toward phytotoxic microorganisms. To a lesser extent, the insecticidal and herbicidal activities of mint EOs have also been studied. It is apparent that the prospect of using menthol mint oils in agriculture is increasing in popularity. A number of investigations showed that the in vitro efficacy of MPEO and MAEO, as well as that of their main constituent, menthol, is pronounced. The results of in vitro research are useful for choosing EOs for further investigations. However, it is clear that in situ experiments are crucial and should be more extensively developed. At the same time, known techniques are to be applied to this area and new methods should be worked out, aiming at the improvement of EOs’ pesticidal efficacy and cost-effectiveness, for future implementation in agricultural pest control.

Abstract
The self-assembled natural and synthetic polymers are booming. However, natural polymers obtained from native or modified carbohydrate polymers (CPs), such as celluloses, chitosan, glucans, gums, pectins, and starches, have had special attention as raw material in the manufacture of self-assembled polymer composite materials having several forms: films, hydrogels, micelles, and particles. The easy manipulation of the architecture of the CPs, as well as their high availability in nature, low cost, and being sustainable and green polymers have been the main positive points in the use of them for different applications. CPs have been used as building blocks for composite structures, and their easy orientation and ordering has given rise to self-assembled CPs (SCPs). These macromolecules have been little studied for food applications. Nonetheless, their research has grown mainly in the last 5 years as encapsulated food additive wall materials, food coatings, and edible films. The multifaceted properties (systems sensitive to pH, temperature, ionic strength, types of ions, mechanical force, and enzymes) of these devices are leading to the development of advanced food materials. This review article focused on the analysis of SCPs for food applications in order to encourage other research groups for their preparation and implementation.

Encapsulation of Essential Oils for the Development of Biosourced Pesticides with Controlled Release: A Review. Molecules 2019; 24:molecules24142539. [PMID: 31336803 PMCID: PMC6680563 DOI: 10.3390/molecules24142539] [Citation(s) in RCA: 93] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2019] [Revised: 07/08/2019] [Accepted: 07/09/2019] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Essential oil (EO) encapsulation can be carried out via a multitude of techniques, depending on applications. Because of EOs’ biological activities, the development of biosourced pesticides with EO encapsulation is of great interest. A lot of methods have been developed; they are presented in this review, together with the properties of the final products. Encapsulation conserves and protects EOs from outside aggression, but also allows for controlled release, which is useful for applications in agronomy. The focus is on the matrices that are of interest for the controlled release of their content, namely: alginate, chitosan, and cyclodextrin. Those three matrices are used with several methods in order to create EO encapsulation with different structures, capacities, and release profiles.

Abstract
Recently, starch nanoparticles have attracted widespread attention from various fields. In this study, a new strategy for preparing covalent-cross-linked starch nanoparticles was developed using boron ester bonds formed between debranched starch (DBS) and borax. The nanoparticles were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), dynamic light scattering (DLS), differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The obtained nanoparticles were spherical with a size of 100-200 nm. The formation of boron ester bonds was confirmed by FTIR. The as-prepared starch nanoparticle exhibited a low relative crystallinity of 13.6%-23.5%. Compared with pure starch film, the tensile strength of starch film with 10% starch nanoparticles increased about 45%, and the elongation at break percentage of starch film with 5% starch nanoparticles increased about 20%. The new strategy of forming starch nanoparticles by using boron ester bonds will advance the research of carbohydrate nanoparticles.
